Sorry for the delay in this note but I have been away (again!). That is a really good build -= considering the age of that kit you have made a really good job of it, especially the finish and markings. As for the bb so what? I am sure that there are very few of us who have not got one or more of those hiding in the back of display cabinets (or worse, in the roof). I regard them as learning experiences; after all the person who never made a mistake never made anything.

Nicely done. I think your radiator installation actually improves the look of the airplane.

Thanks for the comments gents, I did really enjoy the build.  Just finished the Nieuport so will have pics on that one up soon.

Hi Justin,

Very nice build, well done.
But there is one thing I want to ask, what brand, type and number of paint did you use for the black, or is it a very dark blue, hard to tell from the photo?

Cheers,
Danny

Thanks Danny, the paint used was Revell aqua 52 - Blue, a bluey, black wash and then Matt coated to dull down the shine.  I only use Revell paints, I find them great for airbrushing with tamiya thinners and for brush painting with some flow improver makes it an awesome brush paint, no brush marks what so ever.
